To cool off and entice your taste buds, this summer’s Festival de Helados showcases a variety of different frozen treats to celebrate the flavours of Mexico in a stylishly festive atmosphere.

The star of the show this year, the most outlandish and delicious of them all, will be the Guacamole ice cream (Postre de Guacamole), prepared fresh tableside in the typical lava-rock molcajete, a sweet spin on RM’s signature Guacamole en Molcajete serving. This special concoction uses sweet avocado ice cream served in frozen molcajete, mixed with strawberries, shaved white chocolate, cookie crunch and chopped mint leaves. All the ingredients are mixed and presented with small cone biscuits (as in chips).

Come to taste them! There’s no better way to beat the heat in the dog days of summer!

The Ice Cream Festival, running from June 1st throughout summer till August 31st, is part of Rosa Mexicano’s year-long “Flavours of Mexico” series of themed menus, celebrating the unique flavors of Mexican-inspired cuisine.

Founded in 1984 by chef Josefina Howard, with currently 15 locations across the USA, and internationally in Panama City, Puerto Rico and Dubai (one at the Mirdiff City Centre and the second in the Dubai Mall opened in July 2013), Rosa Mexicano has set a new standard for Mexican cuisine ever since it opened its first restaurant in New York. Its award-winning dishes – the Guacamole en Molcajete prepared tableside in a lava-rock mortar, the Tacos, as well as the Frozen Pomegranate Margarita – are anchored in the culture and traditions of Mexico, while incorporating modern innovation and regional accents. Rosa Mexicano continues its commitment to serving authentic Mexican flavours, using socially responsible ingredients served in a stylish and festive atmosphere bursting with its signature hues of purples, pinks, reds and oranges, and in dramatic architectural designs featuring a cascading water wall.
